About Liz
Liz Taub is a New York City fiddler, singer and songwriter who has played stages across the US and abroad. She fiddles with several bands, plays with the Queer Urban Orchestra, sings with the NYC Labor Chorus, and is part of the People’s Music Network.
Before and alongside the music came social work, psychotherapy and Reiki, so it makes sense that her songs lean toward care: for kids at the border, for the people who kept the city running, and for the ocean and everything living in it.
These days you’ll find her at porch stomps, social-justice nights, Friday services and sound baths, usually with a fiddle under her chin.
